The Solo Shopping, Walking & Eating

I tried to wake up early for breakfast, but I just couldn't. Slept till 11 am, got ready & head out to Bt Bintang area. I read about this bistro cum bakery called The Loaf. It's located at Pavilion. Last night, with the help of Hewlett, I was checking out the map of Bt Bintang online so that I know how to make my way to Pavilion. I took the monorail to Bt Bintang & I just use my instincts & the rough recollection I had from the map. Pretty easy. :)

I saw The Loaf almost immediately. Gee...if you happen to like bakery items (I love bread so much that I did consider marrying a baker!), you'll find this place simply irresistable! I thought Bread Talk is wow already...but The Loaf beats them hands down! The bread spread is superb...looking at them is enough to make me drool! I tried their grilled chicken sandwich. Thought of bringing some buns back to Hilton to enjoy (feeling afternoon tea) but seeing how hot & humid the weather is, I guess better not. The Loaf is a must try if you go to Bt Bintang! I had my sandwich al-fresco & I tell you, I feel like I'm in Italy. Haha..it's good that Pavilion is situated on the other side of Bt Bintang, more of the atas area sort of.

I actually walked from Pavilion to Lot 10 to Sungei Wang & to Berjaya Times Square! I've heard about how huge Sungei Wang is & thought of taking a look myself. The shops there are like hundreds of those at Far East Plaza & the layout of the shops is like Queensway's. You can just walk around aimlessly & be totally lost. So much that I felt claustrophobic. If people like Liah & Suliana go to Sungei Wang, I bet they'll be sooo lost that they cry. Hahahaha! I just realise KL has many HUGE shopping malls. Mid-Valley, KLCC, Pavilion, Berjaya Times Square, 1 Utama, The Curve. These malls have big walkways too. That means, KL is very generous with land! Haha...well, Malaysia do need to make use of their land. S'pore will be so glad to buy some if we can!

The Christmas decorations in the malls are nice! It's better than those we had in Singapore, hokays! And KL Tower actually has beautiful lights that changes colour every now & then in the evening. Good good, shall admire the view tonight.

Going back from Bt Bintang to KL Sentral was another chore. I thought of spending my last evening in KL by "hibernating" in my room. I ordered room service, ate by the glass panes potraying KL's bright lights & blasting MTV. Gorgeous. :)

P/s: Thanks hor Helmi, for giving me the wake-up call yesterday. I appreciate the father or rather, obek figure in you. Hehe!
